Support the Animals
The animals, as part of a Care Farm, love to get as much as they give!
Here are some ways, snackies or items that the animals here at Grateful Acres, would be grateful to receive. If you choose to contribute anything to the farm, please be sure to include a bit about you, even if it’s just your name, so that we can thank you!

IMPORTANT: Please Note
Though most of our animals are loved rescues, we are not a rescue farm.
Our hearts go out to those animals in need and we truly wish we could take them all! We carefully weigh and consider all factors prior to taking in any rescues.
At this time, we are focusing on acclimating our recent rescues and growing the aspects to promote Care Farming.

Visits and Volunteers
We offer the opportunity to visit the farm, to utilize it’s resources and (whether independently or supported) promote overall health, mental health, and well-being. We also offer opportunities for those looking for a more hands on “therapy” through volunteering! There is a lot that can be gained from hands in the dirt and taking care of the animals, farm and garden…while taking care of yourself!
